Anyway.

People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-centered;
Forgive them anyway.

If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.

If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies;
Succeed anyway.

If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.

What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.

If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.

The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.

Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you've got anyway.




This poems sits humbly in one of the male staff toilets in Northlight School, presumably to motivate those guys in one of the harshest teaching environments. The past 3 days in northlight school has certainly been enriching. Running a camp was never easy, much less running it for kids with life stories that put most channel 8 dramas to shame.

Ad-hoc, job blardy well done. Especially Elaine and Christen for so much dedication to a very tough assignment. Much love to all CT councillors for being understanding and mature people in the camp, I'm very sure you've became imba role models to them. Group 2 were tought nuts and despite seeing very little cracks in their shells by camp's end, I know they took something away.
